Quanto tartufo comprare?
Non esiste una regola generale. Però posso dirti che dipende soprattutto dalla qualità e dal tipo di Tartufo. Il Tartufo bianco pregiato, per esempio, ha un profumo talmente intenso che, per profumare un piatto, ne bastano pochissimi grammi. Quindi, puoi calcolare circa 5/10 g per persona a seconda della qualità.
Il Tartufo Nero Pregiato invece, ha bisogno di quantità più elevate per sprigionare tutto il suo sapore, e il costo inferiore che offriamo permette di essere anche un pò più generosi in termini di grattate. In questo caso ti consiglio di considerare un minimo di 15 g per persona.
La quantità esatta di Tartufo da comprare dipende da tantissimi fattori, tra questi è molto importante anche lo stato di conservazione del Tartufo.
Questo portale ha lo scopo di offrire il meglio del Tartufo Nero Pregiato (Tuber melanosporum). Con lo scopo di non farti ingannare dai commercianti e dai ristoratori, che quest’ultimi a oggi non sono più ristoratori ma commercianti.

SWEET BLACK
Despite white truffles being considered the most prized, many people prefer the Fine Black Truffle (Tuber Melanosporum), which is also called sweet black due to its exquisite flavour. Its gleba is black-brown, tending towards violet or reddish, with dense, thin whitish veins and well-defined contours, accompanied by two translucent brown bands on the sides. The surface has pyramidal warts and reddish hues.
Average weight: 8-200 gr
Dimensions: 5-10 cm
Harvest period: from December to March.
Harvesting area: Umbria, Abruzzo, Marche, Tuscany and Lazio, but also, in smaller quantities, in Veneto, Lombardy, Emilia Romagna, Trentino, Piedmont and Liguria.
Symbiotic plants: Downy Oak, Holm Oak, Turkey Oak, Linden, Hazel, European Hop-hornbeam, Rockrose.
As we all know, truffles are a highly coveted delicacy. Unfortunately, in addition to their delicious flavor and culinary versatility, they are also known for their price.
So, let’s clear up everything surrounding the price of black truffles, which are certainly less expensive than white ones but still not cheap.
Price of Black Truffle
The price of black truffles can depend on numerous factors; here are the most relevant:
- Freshness: a fundamental requirement for any fruit of the earth, and for truffles in particular, because they are extremely perishable.
- Size: it is important to know that, for the same weight, a single large, well-rounded truffle costs more than several small truffles, because larger specimens, in addition to being obviously rare, are more usable and allow us to discard less.
- State of ripeness: for a truffle to be perfect, it must be harvested at the right time, otherwise it would lose many of the qualities that make it so special, which is why its harvesting is entrusted to "expert truffle hunters," who use specially trained dogs.
- Quantity of product harvested: there are good and less good years, depending on climatic conditions (if the years are, for example, scarce in rain, very few are found, and the price rises accordingly).
Another very important factor to consider is from whom you buy the truffle: buying from a qualified company provides a greater guarantee of accuracy in product selection.
Black Truffle: How much does it cost?
The price of Fine Black Truffles is subject to significant fluctuations from one year to the next, precisely because of climatic and seasonal trends; not to mention the fact that, during the season, prices can even change daily depending on supply.
After all this information, certainly interesting but quite vague, you are probably asking yourself:
"If I wanted to buy Fine Black Truffles, how much would I have to spend?"
Here are some general guidelines, considering a season of average availability:
- The price of 100g of fine black truffle can fluctuate between €80.00 and €150-180.00; so we're talking about an average price ranging from €800 to €1800 per kg.
Although the fine black truffle is much less expensive than its prized white cousin, it still reaches significant price peaks and can even cost almost €2,000 per kg for large, high-quality specimens, although to reach certain prices it's likely to be slightly out of season and in years of low abundance.
- 1 kg of Uncinatum truffle (less prized but still highly appreciated), on the other hand, can cost on average between €250.00 and €400.00 per kg.
Keep in mind that these are only very general indications, because the prices of truffles, whether black or white, vary almost continuously.
NATIONAL TRUFFLE EXCHANGE
To stay informed about truffle prices and their fluctuations, fortunately there is the National Truffle Exchange, which allows us to remain updated in real time on the prices of these subterranean fungi that can end up being worth more than gold.
By consulting the Exchange online, you can be informed about the prices of various types of truffles in real time, just like with precious metals: it is no coincidence that the term “black gold” does not only refer to oil.
